Broken/Updated Mods & CC: Scared Update & Paranormal SP, Jan. '21

This topic is for collecting reports on mod and custom content (CC) status after the Jan. 21, 2021, Scared emotion patch and the Paranormal SP. Please keep discussion to reports. Thanks!

GAME-RATED CONTENT ONLY. Only non-18+ content and creators with no 18+ content can be mentioned here.

ASKING ABOUT MODS: Please don't. If it's not listed as broken, updated, or cleared by the creator on page 1, the answer is either "Don't know" or "Cant' say here".

REPORTING BROKEN MODS: Before reporting a mod or CC is broken, test it:

1. Back up your saves in case you save over a favorite file while you’re testing.
2. Remove everything from your Mods folder except the mod being tested.
3. Delete the localthumbcache file.
4. Open your game and test to see if the mod is doing what it should. If it’s still broken, please let me know! Include how it’s broken and what steps you took to confirm that it's broken, and let the creator know too.

REPORTING WORKING MODS: Unless you are the creator or are linking to a creator's report, please don't report that a mod is compatible with the patch/pack.

REPORTING UPDATED MODS: It would be super helpful to me if you could include a link when you do this. Many, many thanks!

Yes a big Thanks for doing this, save so much time.

Roge

@luthienrising UI Cheats Extension is causing some visual glitches.

luthienrising

Thanks @Roge ! I worked through that with a Simmer on Discord just now.

• T.O.O.L. Mod (TwistedMexi) — visual UI glitches but so far seems functional

83bienchen

Todays patch seems to have little effect on mods. I have updated my strommoodlettweak to support the new fear emotion:

Mod Updates

amethystlilac

thepancake1 and mizori yukii's new colour slider causes a last ui exception when you try to exit the game, and won't let you actually exit without using the task manager (I accidentally dragged it to the wrong window and couldn't figure out why my game wouldn't close when I had no mods)

Onverser

I've done some checking and the sliders mod by thepancake1 which only just came out is totally broken, causes the game to become unusable with a greyed out screen in live mode and when trying to leave CAS. Deleted all my other CC so can confirm this mod is behind it.

luthienrising

Hi @amethystlilac and @Onverser ! Have you checked if that happens when that's the only mod installed, after deleting localthumbcache?

jennidot

Hello! Just curious if the "MCCC" mod is affected by this. Thanks! :smile:

amethystlilac

deleted the cache, redownloaded, tried alone, and still the same problem @luthienrising . Also, you are amazing for keeping up with these lists like you do. Thank you so much!
